Tyrolean All Inclusive 2018 - GOLD!

9 Day All Inclusive by Coach

Busy ski resorts in the winter, the picture-book villages of the Austrian Tyrol transform during the summer months into tranquil havens offering crisp mountain air, flower-filled rolling meadows and soaring mountain ranges. Our ‘all-inclusive’ holiday combines great local hospitality amid spectacular scenery, together with a sightseeing programme taking in the very best of the surrounding countryside - and a visit to the majestic city of Salzburg too. Our base is the popular winter and summer resort of Saalbach, in the heart of the scenic Glemm Valley. The pretty village is traditional in character and is surrounded by an abundance of beautiful mountain scenery and lush green meadows.

You have the opportunity to choose the coach seat of your choice which is yours from the moment you join your Gold coach. Seat numbers are not allocated on the regional transfer service to the tour coach.
